TotalEnergies and Wenea aim at building together a leading player in electric mobility.
TotalEnergies and Wenea are building a leading player in electric mobility in Spain by developing a network of high-power charging hubs.
As a first step, TotalEnergies announces that it has acquired Nordian CPO, a subsidiary of Wenea group that owns 200 charging sites. These sites, supplied entirely with renewable electricity, are located along major highways and in urban areas in all 17 regions of Spain.
Both companies are pursuing their discussion to establish a strategic partnership in view of pooling their expertise and skills in infrastructure, power distribution and mobility to build and invest together in high-power charging hubs.
"We are pleased to acquire this nationwide network of fast and ultra-fast charging points and are willing to build a solid partnership with Wenea, a pioneer in EV charging in Spain. Spain has Europe's fifth largest automobile fleet, and the proportion of electric vehicles is expanding rapidly,” said Mathieu Soulas, Senior Vice President New Mobilities and Marketing at TotalEnergies.
"This is a leadership race to serve millions of customers country by country. This new agreement between Wenea and TotalEnergies, a major global multi-energy company, will represent a winning proposition,” said José Manuel Zorrilla, President of Wenea.
This partnership in Spain is aligned with the TotalEnergies’ ambition to deploy and operate more than 1,000 high-power charging sites for electric vehicles in Europe by 2028.
